Mr. EdCsr . -Iox spring, to the toteri- ex of the shlppcra, to which Ocean View J was the tteareat point, I called upon tbe \ superintendent of tbe W. J. Railroad. L Cor object was to have Ocean View made ,1 into a freight station ; this would cat off ^ • distance of nearly two miles for everv II "hipper between 11 and Beeriryt Point. ' I,. The soperintendent, (who, by the wsy, a most be bard pressed with buaioees since - he kept hinneif diligently employed with . his coneapondence daring oar totrrriew), ^ Wp ied, that the Sea Isle branch had bren built solely to tbe inlerex of Sea Isle City. Thai shippers always Aid taken - their freight to Searille, and could ooo- ! ttoue so to do; the branch did not pay ; it i cox 810 frw every dollar they collected oo It- That to place cn agent there and to f build for Borage of freight would be an r additional expense, etc. r TVac certainly were solid object iona. and we therefore offered to pay Sea laic rata , (SJ cents pa barrel more-tbanatBeavillri; ; sign a release, snd do our business through tbe Sea Isle agrnt. only let us ship snd receive freight at Ocean View. .

Sioce then I met General Bewdi I T and talked over the matter with him; he J d could see no objection to the arrangement t to pay Sea Isle raua and made a note of ' c tlic ooovereatton.
